When the snow begins to fly in the Northern States, the snowbirds begin their winter exodus to the South.

For those of us who live in Florida, it means packed roads, restaurants and beaches. It also means activities and programs in churches as they ramp up to accommodate the part time residents of our sunny state.

During the winter months, it is a joy to put together retreats, concerts and programs for the full-time residents as well as the part timers who come each year.

The Bible Study Retreats and concerts scheduled to date are:

• Women’s Retreat in Orlando April 20-24
• Concert at Lake Gibson UMC in Lakeland, Florida May 10
• Women’s Retreat in Pagosa Springs, Colorado September 9 – 12
• Women’s Retreat in Daytona Beach, Florida November 9 – 13

During the summer months, I will be traveling through Georgia, North Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Colorado and am in the process of scheduling “Simply Worship” concerts in various churches.

Please pray for me as I travel and put together retreats and concerts. The Lord can open hearts of those who listen, drawing them closer to Him and He will keep me safe as I travel. He is always our strength and shield wherever we go, and we are grateful to be the children of the King of Kings, aren’t we?
